What the ?!?!?

Let's start on the morning of March 25th... Sunday.  I woke up and just didn't feel right... so I went to the bathroom and was going to pee on a stick... just to check. But according to my temps I was (approx) 6 days past ovulation and I knew that it was relatively impossible to detect a pregnancy that early so I just peed without any sticks.  The next morning I still felt off so without even considering that I was only 7 days past ovulation I decided to pee on a stick, well pee in a cup and then dip a stick in.  (Boy am I glad I did that). 

At 6:53 I took the stick with me to the kitchen so that I could start breakfast.  I set the stick on a few paper towels on the counter.  I  glanced at it after about 30 seconds and thought "Man, my eyes must still be tired because I think I see a second line."  I blinked 7 or 8 times and kept staring at that stick watching a second line slowly appear.  I immediately started freaking out and had to have a second set of eyes to say that there was a line.  I called my neighbor who I knew was awake and called and called until she answered.  When she finally did I told her to get over here NOW!  In the time that it took her to walk over, it was obvious. 

There was a second line.  I called into work (not even sure how I functionally called 3 people to get my shift covered since I was shaking so much and so anxious) and jumped in the shower so that I could run to the store and get more tests! I ran into the store with soaking wet hair and gym pants because my regular pants were a little tight, even though I had been dieting and loosing weight (now it makes sense).  I came back home and dipped a few more sticks into my cup and....

HOLY SHIT!!! I screamed out to my dogs "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?" I knew that the digital test would be the one that convinced me (because 2 other tests hadn't convinced me by this point).  So I dipped the digital in and decided to not look.  I was going to stare into the hallway for as long as I could.. 10 seconds went by, I peeked and the hour glass was still there...waited another 10 seconds, hour glass still there... waited another 5 seconds and watched the hour glass change to the magical word PREGNANT!

This is when I started crying.  I was shaking and crying and told my dogs they were going to be big sisters.  I called my best friend, who didn't answer because she doesn't work early and it was still only 7:25am.  So I called another girlfriend of mine who was my best friend growing up, but sadly we had grown apart over the past year or so.  Just the day before we talked very little about how we should do better at being friends and how much we missed each other.  At that moment (7:25 am) I had to tell her.  I called her and almost hung up as soon as the phone rang remembering what time it was and knowing that they are NOT morning people.  She called me back about an hour later and at that point my anxiety about telling others was gone and I didn't know if I should tell her, so I didn't answer.  

I called my doctor and she couldn't believe it.  She said that there was no way I got a + pregnancy test since I was only 3 days past ovulation... dumb Dr.  she was going by the everyone ovulates on cycle day 14 theory... well I ovulated on around cycle day 10 so it was possible.  She told me not to get my hopes up, and that I might be having a chemical pregnancy.  I had to immediately get blood work done to check my HCG levels and re-do the blood work 48 hours later to see if my levels were progressing.  

BUBBLE POPPED!

That evil Dr. just broke my heart.  I felt like an idiot for getting my hopes up about being pregnant.  I didn't know how I should feel at that point, but something in me said "that Dr. is in idiot.. you are totally pregnant, if you weren't that pregnant you wouldn't get a positive on a digital pregnancy test"
